Notes:
- According to Saha et al. (2010), this species is an earlier heterotypic synonym of Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes Stanier 1966 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Saha R, Sproer C, Beck B, Bagley S. Pseudomonas oleovorans subsp. lubricantis subsp. nov., and reclassification of Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes ATCC 17440T as later synonym of Pseudomonas oleovorans ATCC 8062 T. Curr Microbiol 2010; 60:294-300.
- Pseudomonas oleovorans is isolated from oil-water emulsions used as lubricants and cooling agents in the cutting and grinding of metals. Apparently the organism lives on some normal constituent of the cutting compound, probably the naphthenic acids, which act as emulsifying agents. Consequently, the name oleovorans may not be appropriate. Publication: Palleroni NJ. Genus I. Pseudomonas Migula 1894, 237 AL (Nom. Cons., Opin. 5 of the Jud. Comm. 1952, 121).
